Filipino Catholics hold requiem mass for ex-pontiff Benedict


Malolos (Philippines) (AFP) – Filipino Catholics hold a requiem mass at Malolos Cathedral for ex-pontiff Benedict XVI on the same day as the funeral at the Vatican. Benedict, born Joseph Ratzinger, died on Saturday aged 95, bringing an end to an unprecedented situation of having two “men in white” — he and Francis — living in the Vatican. IMAGES
